note to Pres Bush: PLEASE stop sucking up to these parasites. The muzzies intentions are all known and we dont want them around here!

Poor George... He's been under the stain for too long..

Semper Fi

Ramadan is more evidence that Moe-Jah-Mid ripped off the idea for his cult from moon-worshiping pagans. It begins on a full moon. The word "Allah" was used in Arabia long before Moe-Jah-Mid came along, "Allah" was their moon god. And the crescent moon is islam's "logo".

[Truth29]

Bush is so conflicted, that he keeps tripping up the GOTV effort to retain control of Congress.

[Dallas59]

Pretending to be a fool...

"when he praised Islam as a religion that brought hope and peace "

*****

President Pander Bear.

[chadwimc]

Piss on islam. May pig dung be upon mohammed's head.

[Vanders9]

If we are going to win this war on terror, we have to keep the majority of muslims "on-side". I dont think its a faith that offers a great deal of substance or comfort to its adherents either, but we can argue that later.

[durasell]

I fail to see why this is a big deal...

This was the sixth iftar dinner Bush welcomed Muslims to at the White House since 2001.

Sure he's better than the democratic alternative but...
SIX TIMES?
jEEZZZ.
This is like, during the fighting of WW2, Roosevelt Praising Nazism as a good political party that just happened to be taken over by extremist...and that he knew the vast majority of casualties were German. ....

Maybe next week he will have dinner with the North Koreans and tell them that their austere energy measures are doing wonders to help stop global warming.

or maybe our President ought to sit down and have dinner with the parents and spouses and children of the 70 dead and hundreds of wounded AMERICAN troops who were killed and wounded DURING --- RAM MAD DAN.....by moslems.

Ignoring the obvious issues with Islam at large, why not celebrate Hindu holidays, or Shinto holidays, or Buddhist holidays?

[PghBaldy]

I wasn't finished- my point was did this all start after 9/11? Or did Clinton start it? Like I said, it is foolishness. I could see celebrating Jewish & Christian holidays, because our country's heritage is Judeo-Christian. This is just stupid. There is no need for it.

[Always Right]

Islam was founded by violence and history is filled with Islamic lead violence ever since. There is nothing peaceful about Islam.

[Jezebelle]

I wish he would really stop the appeasement and pandering. I realize a little bit of it is necessary, but MUST he honor them by inviting them to WH dinners?

I realize a little bit of it is necessary, but MUST he honor them by inviting them to WH dinners?

So Reagan was wrong when he had Gorbachev at a WHite House dinner.

This is diplomacy, I guess most people read the headline and miss the meat of Bush's message.

"“You know that the majority of the victims of the terrorists have been innocent Muslims, and many of you have seen terrorist violence in your own cities and your streets,” Bush said, according to the Associated Press. “We are proud to work with you to defeat the terrorists and extremists and help bring a brighter future to millions of Muslim people throughout the world who yearn for moderation and peace.”"

But actually reading the article won't stop some from haveing a knee jerk Bush bash.
